[QUOTE="si|verfish, post: 968106, member: 2758"] It is road legal in Britain, I don't know about anywhere else though. It really is a track car and a thinly disguised effort to masquerade as a road car. Same goes for the Atom. All these niche cars came along thanks to the track day boom in Britain. munky, where's the time for the GT3 RS? It should be way up there. Anyway, for all its dynamic polish and grunt, the M5 could never beat the laws of physics. It is just too heavy and weight is the killer in performance driving, especially on a track. That Autocar article really is the main culprit, road test on normal roads, no performance figures or lap times or substantial evidence to back any of the writers opinion. It was a pretty inconclusive piece despite the writers attempt to be conclusive in BMW's favour. And then, just this month's Autocar, they tried to find the World's Best Driver's car and they (5 of them including a racer) rated the F430 to be better than the M5 on both road and track, plus the Ferrari was faster in both wet and dry conditions on the Rockingham track. The credibility of the claim made in the M5 > F430 piece? Go figure. [/QUOTE]
